Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons whole anise seeds
2 cups julienned red cabbage
1 cup julienned carrots
1 cup julienned jicama
1 large jalapeno, thinly sliced crosswise
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
1 scant teaspoon coarse salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint

Steps:

  • Heat a small, heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Add anise seeds and toast, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove anise seeds from pan and let cool to room temperature.
  • In a large bowl, mix together cabbage, carrots, jicama, and jalapeno. Add lime juice, salt, sugar, cilantro, mint, and cooled anise seeds; toss to combine; let stand at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally, before serving. Slaw is best when made up to 3 days in advance and can be stored in an airtight container, refrigerated.

I'm not usually a fan of slaw, but this one is really good. The jicama adds a nice sweetness and crunch.

This slaw is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have some leftover carrots and cabbage in my fridge, and this is a great way to use them up.

The dressing for this slaw is perfect. It's light and tangy, and it really brings out the flavors of the vegetables.

I love the crunch of the jicama in this slaw. It adds a nice contrast to the softer carrot and cabbage.

This slaw was a hit at my last potluck! The combination of carrot, jicama, and red cabbage was so refreshing and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again.
